करोड़ों रेलवे यात्रियों को मिला बड़ा तौहफा, वंदे भारत और अमृत भारत एक्सप्रेस ट्रेन को लेकर हूई बड़ी घोषणा

The Indian government is offering a significant gift to millions of railway passengers across the country. Indian Railways will operate over 250 Vande Bharat Express trains and over 300 Amrit Bharat Express trains within the next 5 years, increasing the country's railway track length to over 1.5 lakh track kilometers.

Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has announced that the framework for the sleeper version of Vande Bharat Express is complete and is currently undergoing interior design. Trials will begin within 2 months and the train is expected to be operational within 6 months. Continuous improvements are being made to the existing chair car version of Vande Bharat Express based on operational experiences. The sleeper version of Vande Bharat Express requires a heavier base to balance its higher center of gravity. The new designs of the motor and bogie have been improved in both the sleeper version and the new chair car version of Vande Bharat Express to address dust and stone ingress issues. The sleeper version of Vande Bharat Express will be available in 16, 20, or 24 coach sets. After the successful implementation of 2 sets of Amrit Bharat Express trains with non-AC sleeper and general coaches, their production has been accelerated. The goal is to have 300-400 Amrit Bharat Express train sets and 250-300 Vande Bharat Express train sets (both chair car and sleeper) operating by 2029. The railway network is expanding with the addition of new train sets and vehicles. Last year, 5,300 kilometers of new tracks were laid, increasing the total track length to over 1.3 lakh track kilometers and 75 thousand route kilometers. The plan is to lay 5,000 kilometers of track annually for the next 5 years, resulting in a network exceeding 1.5 lakh track kilometers. To enhance safety, the railway department is installing 'Kavach' on 6,000 kilometers of track. This expansion in network capacity will enable the operation of new trains at higher speeds. The tendering process for installing 'Kavach' on 10,000 kilometers of track is underway. The railway ministry has also reported running a record number of 19,837 special trains during this summer season, transporting over 4 crore passengers.

India ke karodo railway passengers ke liye, sarkar ek bada tohfa de rahi hai! Indian Railways aagle 5 saalon mein 250 se zyada Vande Bharat Express aur 300 se zyada Amrit Bharat Express trains chalaane wali hai. Isse desh ka railway network 1.5 lakh track kilometers se zyada bada ho...

jaayega. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw ne bataya hai ki Vande Bharat Express ka sleeper version ban chuka hai aur ab usme saaj-sajja ki ja rahi hai. 2 mahino mein uske trials shuru ho jaayenge aur 6 mahino mein yeh train chalne lagegi. Vande Bharat Express ke existing chair car version ke experiences se, usme continuously improvements ki ja rahi hain. Sleeper version ka center of gravity zyada hai, isliye usko balance karne ke liye, uske base ko bhaari banaya ja raha hai. Vande Bharat ke sleeper version aur new chair car version mein, motor aur bogie ke design mein changes kiye gaye hain. Isse dust aur stones ke aane ki problem solve ho gayi hai. Sleeper version 16, 20, ya 24 coach set mein aayega. Amrit Bharat Express mein, non-AC sleeper aur general coach wala 2 set successful hone ke baad, uski production badha di gayi hai. 2029 se pehle, 300-400 Amrit Bharat Express train sets aur 250-300 Vande Bharat Express train sets (chair car aur sleeper dono) chalne lagege. Naye train sets aur new vehicles aane se, railway network bhi bada ho raha hai. Pichle saal 5300 km new tracks laid kiye gaye. Ab total track length 1.3 lakh track kilometers aur 75 thousand route kilometers se zyada ho gaya hai. Agle 5 saalon mein har saal 5000 km new tracks laid karne ka plan hai. Isse railway network 1.5 lakh track kilometers se zyada ho jaayega. Passengers ki safety ke liye, railway department 6000 km track par 'Kavach' laga raha hai. Is network expansion se, new trains zyada speed se chal payenge. 10,000 km track par 'Kavach' lagaane ke liye tenders aane waale hain. Is saal summer mein, railway ne record 19,837 special trains chalaayi hain, jisme 4 crore se zyada passengers ne travel kiya hai.

Someone's gotta stop this madness. I can understand VB Sleeper but I'm pretty sure IR doesn't need any more CC VBEs in the short term future. Amrit Bharat- yes definitely.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
